Celebrated food writer presents lecture at Boise State University

By Tara Morgan

Ruth Reichl, former Gourmet editor and New York Times restaurant critic, will give a talk at the Morrison Center at Boise State University on Oct. 16. She spoke with Boise Weekly first, giving her thoughts on the contemporary food scene and how to write about it.

Among Gloria Steinem's personal anecdotes Monday evening were stories about her loving vagabond father, her enduring relationships with feminist luminaries, the fight for the Equal Rights Amendment that continues to this day and why she doesn't drive.
